JP, I think your explanation of 2.1.1 is a little misleading. You say "every HTML element that can be operated by a user is responsive to keyboard functionality" but it's about functions, not elements. So for example you could have an element that is clickable using a mouse but not accessible using the keyboard and that would be okay as long as you can carry out the function that it does using the keyboard by some other means.
